office services. HIPAA provides certain rights and protections to you as the patient. We balance these needs with our goal of
providing you with quality professional service and care. Additional information is available from the U.S. Department of

a matter of public record. The normal course of providing care means that such records may be left, at least
temporarily, in administrative areas such as the front office, examination room, etc. Those records will not be available
to persons other than office staff. You agree to the normal procedures utilized within the office for the handling of
charts, patient records, PHI and other documents or information.
2.
It is the policy of this office to remind patients of their appointments. We may do this by phone text, e-mail, U.S mail,
or by any means convenient for the practice and/or as requested by you.
3.
The practice utilizes a number of vendors in the conduct of business. These vendors may have access to PHI but must
agree to abide by the confidentiality rules of HIPAA.
4.
You understand and agree to inspections of the office and review of documents that may include PHI by government
agencies or insurance payers in normal performance of their duties.
5.
You agree to bring any concerns or complaints regarding privacy to the attention of the office manager or provider.
6.
Your confidential information will not be used for the purposes of marketing or advertising of products, goods, or
services.

certain policies used within the office concerning your PHI. However, we are not obligated to alter internal policies to
conform to your request.

payment information, medication information, etc.

FINANCIAL POLICY / PRACTICE INFORMATION
Thank you for choosing Cary Endocrine & Diabetes Center (CEDC) for your medical care. Our goal is to provide
quality healthcare for you and/or your family. We intend to keep you well informed of office policies that may
affect you. The following is a statement of the financial policies and practice information of Cary Endocrine &
Diabetes Center, which we require you to read and sign prior to the initiation of medical care. If you would like a
copy, please feel free to speak with one of our front office staff and they will be happy to assist you.
FULL PAYMENT, CO-PAYMENT, OR ANY OUTSTANDING BALANCE IS DUE AT THE
TIME OF SERVICE.
WE ACCEPT CASH, PERSONAL CHECKS, AND MASTERCARD/VISA/DISCOVERY.
CO-PAYMENTS THAT ARE NOT PAID MAY BE SUBJECT TO A $10.00 SERVICE FEE.
INSURANCE
In most cases, we will accept your insurance benefits. You are responsible for your portion of the bill (also
known as co-payments/co-insurance) at the time of service. We cannot waive or discount this fee due to our
contracts with insurance companies. If not paid, we reserve the right to charge a $10.00 service fee. The balance
is your responsibility whether your insurance company pays your claim or not.
We cannot file a claim to your insurance company unless you give us your correct insurance information. Please
present your insurance card at the time of check-in. It is necessary for us to keep a copy of the card in your
medical records chart. Unless we are in-network with your secondary insurance, we will not bill to your
secondary insurance carrier. We will not bill for any Tertiary Insurance. We will provide all necessary
information for you to file to your insurance carriers and be reimbursed directly.
Your insurance policy is a contract between you and your insurance company. We are not a party to that
contract. Please be aware that some, and sometimes all, of the services provided may NOT be covered by your
insurance.
In the event that a charge is not covered by your plan, you will be billed the balance after we obtain an
Explanation of Benefits from your insurance carrier. Our practice is committed to providing the best medical
treatment for our patients and we charge the usual and customary fees for the services rendered. Therefore,
outstanding charges are due upon receipt. Accounts with balances that remain unpaid 120 days from the original
date a claim was filed to your insurance will be placed with a collection agency. You will be responsible for any
collection cost.
NON-CONTRACTED INSURANCE PLANS
Cary Endocrine & Diabetes Center welcomes those patients whose insurance companies are not contracted with
this office (example: Medicaid, Tricare Prime, BCBS Value) as self-pay. We request payment at the time of
service for all office visits and surgical procedures.
CONSENT TO TREAT
I voluntarily consent to medical treatment under the professional judgment of Sun-Eun Yoo, MD and her staff. I
understand that the medical treatment performed is necessary or beneficial to my condition.
PLEASE INITIAL (page 1) _______________________

balance and will be your responsibility. There may be additional charges placed on your account by your bank.

Friday: 7:30am – 12:00pm.

AFTER HOURS EMERGENCY CARE
Call 911 or go directly to the emergency room as designated by your insurance company. We do not provide
after-hours coverage in the office. Request endocrine service at hospital check-in.
MEDICAL ADVICE
Generally, our office will return calls within 24 hours or the next available business day.
REFILLS
Call your pharmacy and ask them to fax refill request to our office @ 919-378-2333. DO NOT wait until you are
out of medicine to request a refill. Please note that refill requests may take 24 to 48 business hours.
LABORATORY
For your convenience, LAB CORP is located in our office for your laboratory needs. All insurances will be billed
directly by LAB CORP. It is your responsibility to understand your insurance plan. Should there be any unpaid
claims for your lab services, you will be billed directly from LAB CORP.
MISSED APPOINTMENTS
Please remember to call and cancel your appointment. Your failure to do so prevents another patient from being
seen. Our policy requests a 24 hours’ notice. We charge a “NO SHOW” or “CANCEL WITH LESS THAN
24 HOURS NOTICE” fee of $50.00 when you have failed to show or cancel an appointment. Three consecutive
“NO SHOWS” may jeopardize future appointment availability and is subject to a discharge from our practice.
LATE ARRIVAL
If you arrive more than 20 minutes late for your appointment, you may be asked to reschedule or encounter a
waiting period, as we must continue patient care.
MEDICAL RECORDS & FORM FEES
We are happy to provide you with copies of your medical records when needed; however, there is a fee for this
service. There is a minimum base charge of $10.00. The copying of medical records is $0.75 for the first 25
pages and $0.50 per additional pages. When a provider needs to complete any forms/paperwork, there is an
administrative charge of $20.00. These fees are payable upon request of service. Please allow 24 to 48 hours for
our office to prepare your medical records.
There are no charges if our office faxes your medical records to another medical provider upon receipt of your
signed Medical Release form.
I have read CEDC’S HIPAA & FINANCIAL POLICY and have received a copy if I so desire.
OTHER SUGGESTIONS:
 Patients with diabetes should bring their meter to EVERY appointment
 Arrive 20 minutes before your appointment time
 Always bring your insurance card
 Always bring a medication list or your medications
